Saints WR Equanimeous St. Brown, Amon-Ra’s brother, is beefing with the city of Detroit

Equanimeous St. Brown may no longer play in the same division as his brother, star Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown. 

But Equanimeous, who signed with the New Orleans Saints practice squad this offseason after stints with the Lions’ NFC North rivals, Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears, still apparently has some beef with Detroit.

He has not played in an NFL game so far this season.

By comparison, Amon-Ra has been a key part of the Lions’ resurgence under Dan Campbell since his arrival to Detroit as a fifth-round pick out of USC in 2021. He’s recorded at least 1,100 receiving yards in each of the last two seasons and is on pace to do so again this year with 252 receiving yards and two touchdowns on 27 catches so far this year. 

Next up, the Lions play at the Dallas Cowboys in a massive clash of NFC heavyweights in America’s Game of The Week (4:25 p.m. ET Sunday on FOX and the FOX Sports App) with Kevin Burkhardt and seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady on the…
